I have received well and securely packed the knife. After the first washing I had, however, the only negative point remarkably: The structure of the cutter is not designed so that it is in fact close, but it is running water in the handle, exactly where the blade is incorporated into the handle. The handle itself is as such not an exceptional build quality. But that it should have been on negative points already, in practice show the knife a very good sharpness which is simply necessary in the cooking area. Vegetables and meat can be cut easily and it's fun so rumzuschnippeln. Since the above-mentioned disadvantage is present, I wash the knife itself under running water down so that no water can run into the handle and I may wipe the knife directly, so that they are again ready for the next use. For the price you can recommend the knife in any case.
